Ghostbusters video game gets a release date
If you've played the first Ghostbusters game on the original NES, you may recall driving around in a white box meant to represent the Ghostbusters' Ecto-1, and disappointment that the game didn't live up to the movie.

Found in: Games, NewsSeth Rogen to star in cancer comedy
They say laughter is always the best remedy, no matter the situation. Life is Beautiful, Roberto Benigni's Oscar-winning drama, made light of one of the worst atrocities the world has ever seen. Juno, Paste's 2007 movie of the year, was a smart-as-a-whip comedy about teenage pregnancy, a subject nobody finds particularly funny. And Woody Allen has poked fun at everything from sex with sheep to czarist Russia. Now, Freaks and Geeks alum Seth Rogen will try and convince moviegoers cancer can be funny.

"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."And here we thought that House was going to be the best treatment of Sherlock Holmes that we would ever see. If it were somehow possible to harvest the kinetic energy of a Victorian author turning in their grave because their work was being adapted into modern media, then we could stick a conduit into Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's coffin and tell Al Gore to quit campaigning for renewable energy. Columbia Pictures just announced an untitled comedy film starring Sascha Baron-Cohen as Sherlock Holmes and Will Ferrell... read more
